Hello everyone,
Wow, November is here and the count down to
Christmas and the summer holidays has begun.
We welcomed Senior Sergeant Angelo Ferrara,
Station Manager Bellarine Police Station to our
October meeting. Judith and Sandy met Angelo at
the Bellarine Community Safety Workshop we
attended on behalf of the BHA in response to an
invitation from the Hon Lisa Neville and Assistant
Commissioner for Police Tess Walsh.
Angelo's presentation informed us that the Bellarine
averages 25-30 crimes per week; Barwon Heads
owns 5-10% of that. The three main crimes are
theft from cars, burglaries, and theft of cars. These
crimes are related to youth, drugs and alcohol.
Angelo pointed out that most of our youth are
fantastic and that crime is committed by a small
minority of repeat offenders (not from Barwon
Heads).
Locking your houses and cars does actually
make a considerable difference to crime
statistics. Call 000 if you are concerned as this is
now the general police number for an incident that
requires police attendance. Pick up a Victoria
Police Residential Information Kit from the Ocean
Grove Police Station. Invite the police to talk to your
schools, clubs and groups. Be aware.
The BHA is keen to start the conversation regarding
the revival of Neighbourhood Watch in Barwon
Heads. We will organize a community meeting to
discuss this in the New Year. If you are interested
please contact us via our website or talk to one of
our Committee.
We also heard from Jeff Brooks the Chair of the
Barwon Heads Airport, which is privately owned
with 23 owners.
We all know that it is a very busy place, but were
amazed by the numbers that Jeff provided and were

very interested in the obvious economic benefit to the
Barwon Heads economy. 30,000 people come
through the airport each year. There are over 5000
skydivers and 13,000 support/visitors for skydiving.
There is also the Warbird, business flights, flight
training, Geelong helicopters, the rescue helicopter,
Australian Marine oil spill, the CFA, aircraft hangars
and the wonderful J.L.I Seafoods.
We discussed in detail the close proximity of the
airport and the road and the obvious distractions of
the skydivers. All present shared serious concerns
about the Barwon Heads Rd and talked about our
various attempts to improve the safety of the road.
Negotiations with the Council and VicRoads have
come to very little. The BHA has recently written to Vic
Roads regarding a number of issues, including:
- The intersection of Black Road Rd and the
Barwon Heads Rd has been assessed by Vic
Roads as worthy of remedial attention. While the
community is waiting for the required funds for an
extensive treatment we request Vic Roads install
the same treatment at Black Rock Rd/Barwon
Heads Rd as they have at the Ghazeepore Rd/Mt
Duneed Rd intersection. The installation of two stop
signs and clear road marking would make a
considerable difference.
- The deep ditch which runs along the road reserve
on the northern side of the Barwon Heads Rd,
(near the old church), which is dangerous and from
time to time, causes cars to pitch and loose control.
Repair is urgently needed to increase traffic safety.
- skydivers landing do present a distraction to
motorists. A risk assessment of their landing
proximity to the road is required.
- justification for the 100k speed limit on this narrow
and windy road?
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Talking Real Estate
The BH Pedestrian Safety Project is in its final

stages.
VicRoads is preparing the budget and technical
details for implementation of Option A. This option
was by far the most favoured option in the public
consultation process. (77% in favour) We will be
reporting back to our community as soon as we
have the details from VicRoads.
Many of us know about defibrillators. True, but
do we know where they are in our town, and do we
actually know how to use one if we were called
upon to do so? Good question. Apparently our
chance of surviving a heart attack by a bystander
using a defibrillator is triple that of waiting for a
paramedic!
BHA plans to follow this up and identify where our
defibrillators are locationed and explore the
possibility of some training in their use. Is there a
map already in existence?
With a hot summer predicted we have invited the CFA
to attend our November meeting at the Barwon
Heads Senior Citizens in Clifford Pde on 16th
November at 7:30pm.
Please join us and email your thoughts to us through
our website. www.barwonheadsassociation.com

Blessings and Bothers!!
On so many occasions lately I thank God for the

wonderful people who are our volunteers. It is so good
to hear customers compliment us on the lay-out of the
shop, the excellence of the Book Department, our cheap
pricing, and that our volunteers in the Show-room work
so tirelessly to clear rubbish, yet manage to provide lots
of fascinating things for all who seek them.
I am also so very fortunate that just when our volunteers
complained that they were drowning under the quantity
of dress-making material which had been donated, we
heard the Uniting Church was appealing for just that!
Women from the church were making skirts for
indigenous people in Central Australia, and were very
happy when we were able to off-load our excess for such
a worthy cause. I had also offered to give as many items
of small clothing as we could pack up for the young
woman from our town who was going on holiday in Bali.
Many locals know of the Bali Smiles initiative, in which
weve been involved. This wonderful organisation has
now donated the first Toilet, and more importantly, a
Health Clinic in a town several miles from the main

tourist centres. I was so pleased to hear that they had
raised the large amount of money needed to provide a
part-time doctor, plus a trained resident assistant to run
that clinic. We all feel so proud of the work done by Jan
Johansson and her committee. Some of our
customers who are holidaying in Bali get our excess
childrens clothing which they pack into their suit-cases
and distribute when they arrive. We are so very
fortunate. Partly because ours is such a consumeroriented society we are inundated with donations, and to
know of ways in which the clothes which we know we
cannot sell, will go to many people who are so much less
fortunate at least makes us feel less guilty.
Not all is sweetness and light in our work, however.
Many people arrive to
donate as we
volunteers are taking
bags and boxes etc. in
to the Sorting areas.
Many kind people will
offer help as we struggle
with very over-loaded
bags etc. I am so very
grateful for that help,
though I know since noone can foresee WHEN
goods are dropped off, I cant appeal for more muscle
at any particular time. But just occasionally, something
will be left which causes me to say many VERY
UNLADY-LIKE THINGS about thoughtless donors. I

know that many people feel that what they leave is so
good that it is certain to be sold.
Other less thoughtful people are simply aware of how
expensive tip fees are, and how difficult it is sometimes
to take an item to the tip. I do not know in which category
a recent donor fits, but WOULD hope it is the former.
Someone dropped off a VERY pre-loved barbeque. It
was so big and heavy that we would have been quite
unable to store and display it, let alone MOVE it. It really
was in an appalling condition. I had contacted the firm
which may have been able to identify the culprit on our
CCTV apparatus, but unfortunately, such an outcome
did not eventuate. So we are left with something which
we KNOW will require quite an effort to dispose of.
Obviously any Op Shop relies on the quantity and quality
of donated goods, but please keep in mind that if you
would not buy something youre thinking of donating,
put it in your own garbage.
We do currently send off many bags of clothing to a
company which on-sells items we know our customers
would not buy, but we are paid only 25 cents a kilo for this
service, which we are forced to use given that our
customers choose good quality stuff only. Now please
dont let my grouches put you off donating....most things
left for us DO sell. Please also come to get your bargains
and help us to help others by your purchases. Soon we
will be distributing money again to many worthy local
organisations, so please help!
God bless you,
Helen Edwards, Shop Supervisor

All Saints Anglican Church
Barwon Heads
Our October concert was a special one

for us as the BARWON HEADS
CHORALE performed, & was lead &
conducted by our inspirational leader
Natale Lewington & accompanied by
our gifted pianist Hazel Mitchell!
With our Chorale concerts we choose to raise funds

for charity & our chosen charity this time was LIFELINE. It is a world-wide organisation
for counselling services by telephone & plays an important support role in many areas
in society. It has been established in the Greater Geelong region since 1978, manned
by volunteers with very little government support.
Our concert began with a lively performance of My Fair Lady which was
enthusiastically received & we thoroughly enjoyed singing it! Ave Verum Corpus , a
beautiful & sensitive aria by Mozart followed which we really enjoy performing. Then,
as the poster for the concert suggested, Lets all sing! & Natale encouraged
everyone to join in with the roundThe Waters of Babelon-- & the participation was
enthusiastic which was great!
Here, There And Everywhere, a Beatles song came next & was followed by
Monday, Monday, a happy & smiling song from The Mammas and The Papas.
Natales solo performance thrilled us all! She sang Un Bel Di from Puccinis opera
Madame Butterfly which was glorious & her long time favourite Stardust by Hoagy
Carmichael (Bing Crosby style!) Another popular group is Abba & we performed their
number The Winner Takes It All.
Emma Webb, a member of our chorale, performed a delightful solo on flute by
Debussy called Syrinx & introduced it with a brief synopsis of the story which gave
us a vivid picture interpretation to Debussys music!
Members $10, Non-members $15

Enquiries: phone Jenny on 5254 2580
Please join us for afternoon tea following the concert!
The concert concluded with a popular Beatles singalong accompanied by another

talented chorale member, Sara Brownell, who is the wonderful backup accompanist
for our choir!
Missing this concert?

Next concert (Sunday 13 December) will feature
the internationally renowned trio of
Violinist Ben Castle, Flautist Brighid Mantelli and Pianist Regina Thomae.
Our next concert will be held on Sunday, 8th November at 2.30pm. in the Anglican
Church, Barwon Heads & will be a delightful surprise full of young talent! The
Geelong College has discovered a wonderful group of young enthusiastic wind
players, including flute, clarinet, saxophone, bassoon & more, & will perform in a
mixture of group ensembles.
Do come & support them & stay for afternoon tea. Donation: Friends: $10; Visitors:
$15.
Enquiries: please phone Jenny on 5254 2580.

talking with...Jeremy Gaylard

The new Barwon Heads Association committee.
Pres. Sandy Gatehouse, Treas. Geoffrey Waite, Jeremy Gaylard,
Paul Fox, Sec.Sarah Jackson and team mascot Kenny.
Jeremy Gaylard, (above)

committee member of the
Barwon Heads Association, is
no stranger to public life.
In fact, his impressive CV reads like that of
three men.
Along with his wife, Felicity, Jeremy retired to
Barwon Heads from Shepparton five years
ago, although retired is a loose description as
Jeremy has an active interest in local, state
and federal politics.
A former Mayor of Shepparton, Jeremy has
presided as chair and various other positions
over numerous groups, organisations and
committees among which are:Shepparton Agricultural Society (member for
17 years; Executive member of Shepparton
and District Tourism Association; Hospice
Fundraising Committee; Council
Representative & Patron of Bulding Appeal,
Senior Citizens; Member Shepparton Apex
Club; Chair SPC Relocation Task Force;
Instigator of Youth Forum Raising $7,000 for
Disadvantaged Young People; Worked with
Italian Senior Citizens on Clubroom
Refurbishment; Instigated Council Support for
Albanian Refugees; Committee Member for
the Establishment of a Sporting Complex for
the Aboriginal Community; Chair of the
Victorian Catchment Management Council;
C h a i r o f t h e S u s ta i n a b l e R e g i o n a l
Development Board; Board Member of the
Murray Darling Basin Commission;
Community Advisory Council & Board
Member of the Faculty of Agriculture and
Forestry & Horticulture at the University of
Melbourne.....
From 1993 to May 2,000, Jeremy was Chair of
the Melbourne Market authority, the body that
oversees the operation of the Melbourne
Markets and includes the biggest growers
market in the southern hemisphere.
He has a long commitment to rural
development issues including land care,
salinity and regional economic reform and his
interests have led to extensive travel
throughout Australia liaising with industry
groups and farmers.
As chair of Victorias review of Catchment
Management Structures, the Catchment

Management Authorities were established
across the state, a first for Australia.
In 1997, he was appointed to the Premiers
Rural & Regional Reference Group.
During 1998, he was elected as the Australian
Delegate on the World Union of Wholesale
Markets and consequently became VicePresident of the World Union of Wholesale
Markets during the council meeting in Poland.
In 1999, Jeremy moved to Indonesia to
establish grape growing enterprises in
Australia for Indonesian companies. Then, in
2001 he moved back to Australia to establish a
successful exporting business in fruit,
vegetables and meat into many Asian
countries.
Jeremy and Felicity love Barwon Heads and
he believes we have an enviable lifestyle. It
comes naturally to him to become involved in
public life and hes very impressed with the
Barwon Heads Association and with the
issues it tackles on behalf of the community.

Recently, Jeremy was part of a delegation of

four who attended a Tuesday night Council
Meeting where the subject of our dangerous
footpaths was raised with the council. An
interesting experience for one so well versed
on the ins and outs of running a council.
Jeremy is an excellent resource for the
Barwon Heads Association to draw from and is
an intelligent, engaging and thoughtful person
who has led a most productive life.
Come along to a Barwon Heads Association
meeting and introduce yourself to Jeremy...he
has some wonderful stories to relate.
I cant wait to ask him about the success of
employing Muslim workers on his farms...a
tale for another day.

Think forward folds, yin twists and karma

So, I was late for work on Wednesday.

This is not a first time occurrence.
In fact, Im kinda late most Wednesdays.
With beds to make and lunches to pack,
being an on-time working mum is hard. My
very-obliging boss changed my start time
from 8:00 to 8:15. Then again to 8:30. I
thought about 9:00, but decided simply to
boycott the beds.
I drive the 13th beach road to work. It takes
5 minutes longer and its hard to do 60k on
your own, but I accept 5 minutes of lateness
to check out the beach with the swell. I
watch the black, neoprened bodies along
the peeling, green waves. Makes me feel
good - at least I wont be as late to work as
them - I give thanks for the beautiful
coastline that Im blessed to call home.
Now that were in full spring, theres more to
see than just wind and waves. This morning
at beacon, was the first of the winnebagos.
At horse beach, a steam windowed
commodore. But while their cramped bodies
slumbered, the road was fully awake and
alive. Dancing with the song of spring birds.
I drove along this road on Wednesday, high
on life and salt and running 5 minutes late,
when I saw a crumpled black and white
shape on the bitumen ahead. As I came
closer, I saw the life force that the shape
had once been.

With her cycles and seasons, nature

reminds us of the beauty and the pain of
being in love and of letting go. Just as the
short lived blossom falls with the springbound winds, so too does the life of the
flower let go to provide the seed of the tree.
Her cycles remind us of the process of love
and of loss, light and dark, birth and death.
Watching the grief of a sole magpie on a
fence post made me remember the fragility
and the vulnerability of life. That this life
force exists only to present itself to it us with
her fullest potential. That we express this
fragility by being vulnerable with our hearts.
And that the tapestry that weaves these two
powers together is what real living is all
about.
And real living can hurt.
I picked up the dead magpie off the middle
of the road. It was warm in its lifelessness
across my hands. I lay it off the road, just
back in the sandy dunes - a little way from
the sole magpie on the fence post . I looked
out to the sea and stared.
I was late to work on Wednesday again. But
this time it wasnt because I was making
beds.
Its because I was really living.
While helping someone say goodbye.

inviting expressions of interest
from individuals or groups
within our community who
would like to hold an activity or
event during the Festival of the
Sea in 2016 (Wednesday 16 to
Sunday 20 March).
Activities and events could include music, art exhibits,

spoken word, participatory performances, a forum,
and so much more.
We are particularly keen to have contributions that
reflect our mission:
Your ideas, creativity, and good planning will be

supported by the FOTS Committee where possible,

expenses, links to other funding, insurance cover, or
finding a venue.
Expression of interest forms can be requested by
emailing festivaloftheseabh@outlook.com and need to
be returned by 4 December 2015.
White - Backed Magpies form small

clans of five to ten.
They are possessive and territorial
and will see off raiders and ring ins.
If two magpie areas are adjacent,
they will unite & sing in chorus.

I saw a dead magpie in the middle of the

road.
I swerved across a little, not wanting to
create more of a mess, and proceeded to
drive on to be late for work - when I saw a
lone magpie sitting on the fence. It was
about 10 metres down from where the dead
bird lay. The lone magpie didnt flinch at my
car moving past. It kept looking back to the
east. Back to where the other bird was still.
Back to the soul mate it had lost.
Even though I was already late for work, I
slowed to a stop. I turned my car around,
and drove back to the fence post where the
sole magpie sat. I felt so much sadness for
this empty bird. It made no movement, sang
no song. It just sat there in stillness, staring

Songs of the South

The Festival is also looking for great songs about this
local area, and will run a competition during the week.
Shortlisted entries will perform live, perhaps on the
Saturday, before a judging panel that includes a music
industry professional.
Barwon Heads/Ocean Grove do not have to be
mentioned as such, but it should be clear in the lyrics
that the song is about this area and has a connection
to place.
The entry categories will be individuals and groups
under 13 years of age, 13-18 years, and over 18.
Entries are to be provided on a memory stick by
February 29, 2016.
More information can be requested by emailing
festivaloftheseabh@outlook.com
We look forward to receiving many registrations
and entries for these Festival activities.

(Base Chakra) situated at the base of the tailbone.

We are connecting to being emotionally and
physically strong and stable. By steadying the
mind, we create focus. We are calm and grounded.
We have the opportunity to experience our inner
strength and confidence by overcoming self-doubt
and the fear of falling............. We are creating our
own internal peace.
We consider Balancing Poses as Yang (masculine)
in nature. They require strength and focus which
creates heat in the body. However, Balancing also
requires the mind to be cool and calm and therefore
Yin (feminine) in nature also. We have the
opportunity to achieve the perfect 'balance'.
YOGA AND
BALANCING POSES
Balancing Poses are great poses to
master. We practise Leg Balances
on one or two legs - as we do with
Arm Balances.
Balancing Poses are Virabhadrasana I, II and III

( Wa r r i o r I , I I a n d I I I ) , U t t h i t a H a s t a
Padangusthasana (extended Hand to Toe Posepictured), Vrksasana (Tree Pose), Bakasana (Crow
Pose), etc.
Balancing requires a 'balanced' mind. It is
interesting to note how easily we can balance
according to how calm we are. After a busy day of
rushing around, or a sleepless night, we initially
struggle with our Balances until we manage to
steady the mind.
To practise our Balancing Poses we need to create
a strong foundation.
First, let us look at our Balancing from the physical
perspective. Whether the pose is a Leg Balance or
an Arm Balance, we begin our focus on our
connection with the mat. Balances are weight
bearing which means that we are increasing our
bone density and our strength in the supporting
limb or limbs. As we create a firm foundation, we
also engage our Bandhas (locks). A Bandha is a coactivation of muscles around a joint to protect the
joint and create support. As an example, in a Leg
Balance we are co-activating the muscles around
the ankle joint, the knee joint and the hip joint. To
support the hip we contract the buttock of the
balancing leg. In an Arm Balance, we are coactivating the muscles around the wrist joint, the
elbow joint and the shoulder joint, also engaging
the muscles around the shoulder blades to create
stability. We connect to the three main Bandhas to

support the spine and contain our core. Our drishti
(gaze) is usually soft, calm, and focussed on one
spot. Practising Ujjayi Breath (Victorious Breath)
will create focus and stamina.
Now we are physically in the Balancing Pose, we
can observe the energetic benefits.
Balancing Poses connect to our Muladhara Chakra

THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT
Barwon Coast engaged the students from Barwon Heads Primary

School to enhance their knowledge on local butterflies and
caterpillars, their importance to our local environment and what we
can do to encourage them to our gardens.
To finish off their understanding, students were supported by
Barwon Coast and Bellarine Landcare nursery to build a butterfly
garden within the school grounds. Students from grades 2 and 3
took part in learning more about the local native plants used,
assisted with the garden design, and installation of the final
garden.
The aim of the project is for the students to now monitor the plants
and take note of when over time, caterpillars and butterflies visit
the new installation. Students will gain further insight by recording
their sightings and provide ongoing maintenance to the garden,
whilst creating innovative ideas to educate others of the
importance these native animals have in our ecosystems.
Butterflies and caterpillars can be seen from Spring through to
Summer. Next time you walk past the school take note of the
butterfly garden which is located near the bike shed along
Golflinks Road. The students would love to hear about your
sightings as well, because remember, together we can make a
difference.

talking spring gardening...
have you mulched your garden beds yet? Now that weve been experiencing warmer weather, its
not too late to get those beds and pots mulched. You've heard it again and again - mulch for weed control, mulch for water retention, mulch to keep roots
warm in the winter and cool in the summer...and dont forget that mulching improves the structure of your soil as it breaks down.
General Guidelines on How Thick To Apply
How thick you apply mulch depends on the size of its particles.
Thin, fine particles like compost or finely shredded bark are best laid only 2 inches (5.1 cm) to no more than 3 inches (7.6 cm) deep around most plants
and trees. If you put down a thicker layer than that, you risk reducing oxygen to the roots and if the particle size of your mulch is larger, like straw, pine
needles or chunks of bark, they can be applied up to 4 inches (10 cm) deep. The larger spaces between the chunks allow more air and light in, so you will
need a thicker layer for effective weed control, water conservation, and protection from cold.
Summer Mulching
The goal during the warm to hot summer months with mulch is to help provide even moisture and cooler soil for the plant's roots. Summer mulches can be
left on and never removed since they will decay over the months while providing nutrients and improving the soil at the same time.

Seaview
November showcases two of our favourite and
very popular artists Sara Paxton and David
Hobday.
Sara Paxton is an artist with extraordinary
insight into colour. Her work covers a wide
range of subject matter and her confident
approach gives results that are visually
exciting.
Working in oils, Sara uses various techniquesbuilding the colour and light with layers and
washes to give a luminous, transparent effect,
and in other instances using thicker strokes of
paint applied with palette knife or brush to build
texture, shape and form.

for working with glass. It is no surprise that his
work conveys an intimate known of and
inspiration from the marine environment.
David's glass involves extensive use of kilnformed or fused and slumped glass.

BARWON HEADS URBAN FIRE BRIGADE

The Barwon Heads CFA has responded to 38 call outs so
far this year. While it was a relatively quiet time over
winter, the hot days in October triggered a number of
related and unrelated incidents which the Brigade turned
out to.
The hot weather of the past month promises to be a precursor of the summer ahead,
and we are all busily refreshing our knowledge to be ready for the fire season.
Every Tuesday evening and Sunday morning members of the Brigade are
participating in training of a range of activities. From drafting water to refill the tanker,
to managing dehydration on hot days to practising what to do should a bushfire
directly burn over the fire truck (this is called entrapment), it is mandatory that we
refresh these skills so we can properly support communities over the summer.
Warmer weather means BBQ season which is a wonderful part of summer. We have
been called out to incidents in the past, either due to leaking gas bottles or the BBQ
fare itself catching fire. Please do check your connections carefully before you fire up
the barbie, and once going, never leave it untended.
In order to make ourselves available for strike teams or local
bush fire incidents, we have to have completed a number of
training courses and earlier in the month, a training exercise was
held with all the Brigades on the Bellarine taking part. Brigades
were divided into two strike teams and members took it in turn to
participate in two different exercises. These included a Breathing
Apparatus exercise that involved finding 'casualties' in a smoke
filled room and a size-up run through to identify hazards such as
asbestos and solar panels on the roof. Rural Ambulance Victoria
also attended and conducted a demonstration on how CFA
members can assist paramedics. The second exercise focused
on asset protection on an urban and rural interface, i.e. houses
backing on to farmland with an approaching fire, and included
the entrapment procedure.
On Sunday 8 November, there

Will be a Barwon Heads Fire
Brigade Open Day.
We'll be welcoming visitors from 10am to
1pm and look forward to showcasing our
brigade, equipment and members. Kids of
all ages are welcome, and if anyone is
interested in learning more about
volunteering with the CFA, this is your
chance.
Barwon Heads Fire Brigade has a Facebook page informing you
of local community safety events and insights to what the
Brigade is up to. Make sure you jump on and give us a like to
follow what we are up to!

Doggie Etiquette
2015 POPPY APPEAL NO
CHALLENGE TOO GREAT FOR
OUR RSL SUB-BRANCH RSL
Appeals organisers at all Sub-Branches around
Victoria are gearing up for the annual Poppy
Appeal, with more than half a million poppies
expected to be sold. Ocean Grove Barwon
Heads Sub-Branch is ready for this years Poppy
Appeal, with a committed group of volunteers
manning three stations in Ocean Grove and two in
Barwon Heads. The Poppy Appeal is a cause that
resonates with all Australians and each and every
person who purchases a poppy feels a great
sense of pride in wearing it in the lead up to and on
Remembrance
Day, said
Helen Martin - A Disquieting
Beauty RSL Victoria Appeals
Manager, Peter Smith. Not only does buying and
wearing a poppy show respect for our countrys
fallen heroes, but it helps raise vital funds to assist
past and present servicemen and women and
their dependents in times of need. Poppies were
among the first plants to bloom in the devastated
battlefields of France and Belgium, and since
1921 they have been used in remembrance of
those who fell during times of war. As a wave of
young veterans are finding themselves and their
families in need of assistance, it is now as
important as ever to donate to the Poppy Appeal,
according to Mr Smith. Mr. Smith went on to
explain that the help provided to veterans varies
dramatically and is tailored to each and every
case, but it can include direct financial assistance,
medical expenses and the provision of mobility
aids, home maintenance, food vouchers,
education of dependents, funeral arrangements,
the transition to civilian employment and
advocacy to help secure compensation. Graham
Fisher, President Ocean Grove Barwon Heads
RSL Sub-Branch acknowledges the phenomenal
commitment shown by the members and
volunteers who time and time again, make the
Poppy Appeal such a success. Year in, year out,
our community rallies together to support the
Poppy Appeal in the lead up to Remembrance
Day. I would like to thank the local community from
the very outset who support our Sub-Branch and
wear their poppy with pride. he said. Ocean
Grove selling stations will be located outside
Safeways in Shell Rd, Pharmasave Pharmacy in
the Main Street and outside LiquourLand in the
Coles supermarket carpark. Barwon Heads have
two selling stations, APCO Service Station as you
enter / leave the town and the Barwon Heads
Newsagent in Hitchcock Ave. With the
amalgamation of Ocean Grove and Barwon
Heads RSL sub-branches in 2011, the sub-branch
and meeting place is located in Ocean Grove, the
RSL club is aware of how important it is, to include
Barwon Heads community in not only the appeal
collections, but also the services both
Remembrance Day and ANZAC Day. The
Remembrance Day Services this year will be held
at: Barwon Heads Community Hall, Hitchcock Ave
and the service will begin at 10.45 am. Ocean
Grove Cenotaph, Ocean Grove Park service will
begin at 10.45 am
BARKING DOGS
We have a chronic barking dog problem.
It wakes us all up early, sometimes 4am!
It barks on and off all day and into the evening.
The owner takes no action.
Neighbour is tired of her child waking her up very
early in the morning and wants to dob them in.
First, its an offence to let a dog bark in our area as
per the City of Greater Geelong website;
Nuisance animals
Nuisance animals are defined in the Domestic
Animals Act 1994.
The Domestic Animals Act 1994 defines a
nuisance animal as one that:
~ injures or endangers the health of any person,
or
~ creates a noise, by excessively barking or
otherwise, which persistently occurs or continues
to such a degree or extent that it unreasonably
interferes with the peace, comfort or convenience
of other people in any other premises
If you're affected by an animal creating a nuisance
and you feel comfortable you may want to first
contact the owner and advise them of your
concerns.
If this doesn't resolve the issue, contact Councils
Animal Management Unit for advice or
assistance.
Report a barking dog
If you're affected by a barking dog, first contact the
owner and advise them of your concerns.
If this doesn't resolve the issue we may investigate
and take appropriate action.
You will need to tell us:
~ Exactly where the barking dog lives - simply
stating "down the road" or "over the back fence
somewhere" does not help us to investigate your
complaint
Has the dog barked before?
~ If so, you will be asked for more information
~ Details of the barking including frequency,
duration, reason for barking etc
~ Dog owner's reaction when barking occurs
~ Any further comments
~ Your full name - we need your name to send you
a barking diary for completion over a two week
period; please note that we are unable to
investigate anonymous reports
~ Your contact details (email or phone)
~ Your address
This information will be kept confidential.
Alternatively you may wish to contact the
Customer Service Team or visit the website

BARWON HEADS STREETS

Whenever I walk down a local street
I take great care where I put my feet.
and I watch for the gobs
and the doggies big jobs
that lie there in piles, some sloppy, some neat,
Waiting for people to squidge with their feet.
and I tiptoe around
with my eyes on the ground
and wonder what horror Im next going to meet.
And the harder I look, I give you my word,
the more I seem drawn to the tiniest turd,
and the dogs see me coming and say, Heres a
sap, lets nip round the corner and have a good
crap.
Hes wearing those shoes that have crinkly soles,
with lots of small ridges and dozens of holes,
and if we distract him by having a piddle,
nine times out of ten hell tread slap in the middle
Theres nothing more pleases a dogs simple wit
Than to hear the familiar cry of Oh sh**!
(Adapted from London Streets
After Lines & Squares)
Etiquette for owners

As pet owners, we have a responsibility to manage our
pets and ensure good behavior in public. Gentle, painfree methods are essential to training dogs and helping
them bond with their owners. Being gentle, though,
doesnt mean allowing or sugar-coating bad manners
(Hes so excited to see you! She doesnt know her
own strength). Cultivating appropriate behavior in our
dogs paves the way for pleasant relations and
peaceful coexistence among dog owners and nonowners alike. Read on!
Be aware of other peoples space. Keep your leashed
dog close to you and stay alert to others using the
path/park/footpath. Your leash should be slack but
short enough to prevent Fido from contacting or
jumping on passers-by. Even if people say, Its okay,
your dog needs to learn to behave appropriately in
public.
Some people dislike dogs, others are frightened of
them, still others may simply prefer well-mannered
dogs! A well-trained dog and a considerate handler
set a great example of responsible ownership to their
communities, and ensure that dogs will continue to be
welcome there.
Be aware of other peoples feelings.
If your dog does something that upsets someone else
(jumping up, running after them, barking at them, etc.),
apologize to that person and take measures to prevent
the situation from re-occurring. Do this even if your
dogs behavior appeared benign in nature. Shrugging
it off as an overreaction or a personal slight will not
improve your dogs behavior and may negatively
impact your reputation in the community.

WHAT'S COOKING AT
THE LOBSTER POT?
The News in depth
There was no mid-winter slumber for the

Friends of the Lobster Pot this year. No, on the
contrary some of us have been busy forming
an alliance with Nature Conservancy Australia
another volunteer group dedicated to ensuring
clean water & abundant fish for years to come.
They have started an exciting project to install
an underwater camera in the Pope's Eye
Marine National Park in Port Phillip Bay.
The camera will be located in 10 Metres of
water where many fish congregate. The
Lobster Pot will receive live vision of the
comings and goings there. This innovation will
allow visitors to the Barwon Estuary Heritage
Centre this summer to marvel at some of the
wonderful marine life in this spectacular
location without getting wet feet.
As the attentive reader will know the Lobster
Pot or Barwon Estuary Heritage Centre is the
green building on the riverfront near 'At the
Heads' restaurant. The opening season runs
from Boxing Day to Australia Day weekend
from 1.00 p.m. to 4.00 p.m. daily. You should
plan your next visit to cure those post
Christmas blues.
For enquiries or if you would like to join this
diverse and friendly group contact Barwon
Coast. Call at the office or ring Maddie

Word about the Hood
On the 15th of October, Meg, Grainne and

Kasun of BirdLife Australia's BeachNesting Birds team travelled down to
Barwon Heads to band previously
unbanded hooded plovers along 13th
Beach.
Barwon Coast staff, Cher and Brett had been on the

beach early to locate the birds which we planned to band.
The unbanded pair which usually nest between 29W &
30W were conveniently located near the access and
each proved quite straightforward to catch.
They've been banded 'CR' (in honour of Cher) and 'SN'
(after Brett's nickname 'Singe').
This pair now have their first nest for the season, fingers
crossed for them!
Further along 13th Beach, past access 36W, NK & his
unbanded partner were found.
She also proved to be another straightforward capture
and has been banded 'XU' (for eXUberant).
Banding hoodies allows the Beach-nesting Birds team to
identify individual birds, follow their movements and
learn more about them through their life cycle, eg their
partner, age, sex, territory.
PC & EH have their second nest for the season at 40W.
Success for the hoodies depends on everyone. Please, if
you are visiting any beach where hoodies are nesting,
respect the signs at the breeding areas.
Walk your dog elsewhere, but if that's impossible, keep
them on a leash at all times and walk at the waters edge.
Never walk at high tide as the nests are on the sand just
above the high-water mark.

Plover monitoring, please contact Renee Mead at

Bee with a backpackI was
of the
sensor
variety
recently, questioning the

veracity of global warming
as the smell of cooking
wafted in from Mc Murdo
Base on another particularly gelid antarctic blast,
when I realised that the survivors of the ill-fated Earl
of Charlemont has unwittingly instituted a 150 year old
tradition of tourists trampling our dunes.
Ive noticed that there is a lot of sand in Barwon
Heads, in fact the dunes are basically full of the stuff.
Now sand is basically the pulverised ephemera of
rocks, shells and assorted carapaces and
exoskeletons; soaked in salt, dumped on a beach and
blown into large piles. And when I consider the
searing reflective qualities and the dubious water
retention properties, I wonder why anyone would
choose a sand dune as its preferred place of
existence.
But sand dunes are remarkable habitats with a
discreet vegetation type. The long tendrils of the hairy
spinifex (Spinifex sereceus) are so important in dune
stabilization but more so in dictating the shape of the
dunes. And I love the tumbleweed seed heads.
The wonderful cushion bush (Leucophyta brownii) is
another common feature of the
dunes. Modified to with stand
wind and salt, the springy
cushions are made up of
hundreds of thin, silvery-white
branchlets interwoven to form
the distinctive shape. The
leaves are actually reduced to
tiny flaps and in spring the
whole bush is covered in yellow button flowers. And
then there is the dunes natural garnish, sea celery
(Apium prostratum). This small and tasty plant has a
fragility that defies the harsh shifting conditions in
which it lives. The spreading stem of celery-like
leaves have a peppery (and oddly salty) taste and
hides dozens of innocuous green flowers.
A few inches of sand trapped in a Bluff crevice is
enough habitat to sponsor 4 species of these
remarkable plants.
I really admire dune plants.

Great Victorian Fish Count @ Barwon Bluff Marine Sanctuary

5 December 2015
Photo-PhilWatson
What?
Come and join Friends of the Bluff and Parks Victoria as we undertake the annual
Great Victorian Fish Count on Saturday 5 December 2015.
Why?
The Great Victorian Fish Count is an opportunity to get a snapshot of a number of common
or interesting fish species living in Victorian waters. This data allows an estimation of the
structure of fish communities around the coast and comparisons with previous and future
fish counts taken at the same time each year.
This year the theme is Fish on the Move, looking at how fish populations are changing as a result of shifts
in water temperature and climate. We are partnering with Redmap (http://www.redmap.org.au/) to record
species that are found outside of their historic range.
Where?
The Great Australian Fish Count has taken place within Barwon Bluff Marine Sanctuary for the ten years,
and is one of only 4 sites in Victoria that have had continuous monitoring. The actual location
for the survey will depend on conditions on the day and further information will be provided on site.
When?
Meet in the top car park at the Bluff (27W) at 12:00pm for a safety briefing and further
information. We aim to be in the water by 12:45pm and wrap up by 13:45pm
Who?
The fish count is open to all competent snorkelers. All equipment including wetsuits, mask, snorkel, and fins,
must be provided by participants. Fish ID and recording slates will be provided.
Children are welcome to participate under full supervision of parents or guardians.
Volunteers should register their intent to participate with stephen.tuohy@parks.vic.gov.au
(5254 5003 / 0400 612 198) For more information on the Great Victorian Fish Count 2015 visit

News from the Beaches and Coastal Environs

Barwon Coast is a
C o m m i t t e e o f
Management appointed
by the State Government
with responsibility for the
management of 13km of coastal crown
land from 7W Collendina to 42W Blue
Rocks, Barwon Heads covering our
beautiful beaches in Ocean Grove,
Barwon Heads and 13thBeach.
Our Committee members are local residents
appointed with consideration of the skills and
experience that they have to offer in the
management of this important piece of coastline.
BARWON HEADS PROMENADE UPDATE
In late May this year sections of the Barwon Heads
Seawall were damaged by storm events, revealing
significant voids under the promenade; this
resulted in about 200 metres of the promenade
being closed due to concerns for public safety.
Since the failure of sections of the seawall in May,
Barwon Coast has worked continuously toward a
solution that would enable the promenade to be
opened as soon as is practical.
Lyn Martin Photography
Rebuilding of the seawall commenced on Monday

28th September and is progressing well with
approximately one quarter of the wall rebuilt at the
time of writing. In the interest of public safety, all
visitors to the area are asked to take note of the site
signage and only walk as directed.
Particularly be advised that at times the riverbank
beach maybe closed to limit risk to pedestrians.
Barwon Coast is confident the rebuild of almost 200
lineal metres of the seawall and the promenade
path can be completed prior to the summer season.
BARWON HEADS CARAVAN PARK HOWARD
HARMER OVAL PRECINCT MASTER PLAN
Barwon Coast, in partnership with the Barwon
Heads Football Netball Club, has commenced
work on a Master Plan for the oval precinct to guide
improvements over the next 5 to 10 years.
Consultants Thompson Berrill Landscape Design
have been engaged by Barwon Coast to facilitate
community engagement and the development of
the plan.
Preliminary consultation has been undertaken with
the Club, Caravan Park, and members of the
community and it is expected that a draft plan will
be available for full community comment by mid to
late December.
LOCAL SCHOOL ACKNOWLEDGED

CRAB NETTING BAN
Please be aware that due to the Rock Lobster
closed season, hoop nets must not be used on the
ocean side of the Barwon Heads Bridge from the
15th September to the 15th November. Hoop nets
may still be used on the inland side of the bridge at
any time for the collection of sand crabs. To report
illegal fishing call 13FISH (13 4374).
LIVING WITH OUR WILD LIFE
Spring time means all animals are on the move and
it is unfortunate that we are experiencing impacts
to our wildlife from domestic animals. Recently we
collected a juvenile Blue-tongue Lizard that had
been attacked by a dog. Unfortunately the injuries
sustained were beyond repair and as a
consequence, the animal was euthanased.
Please be mindful of where your dogs and cats are,
in particular when out along the coast and along
trails, keep your dogs close to you so you can
control them before they impact on our wildlife that
is just trying to get on with its daily activities. Spring
time also sees a lot of chicks down on the ground.
Should you come across a chick on the ground,
please take the time to look around to try to find the
nest. If safe to do so, pop the chick back in the nest.
If there is no nest visible, pop the chick into a
temporary nest structure at the site and monitor
from a distance throughout the day to see if the
parents come back to feed them. Most chicks do
not need to go into care. By providing alternative
solutions, the parents can successfully raise the
chicks, but we need to be mindful to keep our dogs
and cats away for this to happen.
I encourage you to contact Barwon Coast to
discuss any issues related to coastal management
in our region by phoning 5254 1118.

BARWON HEADS CYCLING CLUB
Things are heating up at the BHCC.

The temperature for one. Its starting to
get warmer as spring has arrived and
there are so many more riders each
day. We are getting a stack of riders
each day as the excitement for the B2B
builds.
Another thing that is heating up is the talk about
the annual Christmas party where we ride from
house to house, eating our way around town. It is
scheduled for the evening of Saturday 28th
November. There have been numerous meetings
planning the route as we take the BHCC kids
around town from venue to venue. Look out for all
of us around the streets on that night and please
give us plenty of room as there will be loads of kids.
Read all about the evening in the next issue of
Talking Heads. B2B Bridge to Bridge
Planning is well under way for our B2B ride

scheduled for April next year. We are riding from
Sydney Harbour Bridge to the Barwon Heads
bridge, which is more than 1000km in over eight
days. Nine riders have committed: Nev, Simon,
Mikey, Lawrie, Graeme, Damien, James, Greg
and myself.
The bus has been booked and we have recruited
Peter to drive the bus.
We are looking for a trailer (about 5x7).
Accommodation is currently being planned. We
even have spreadsheets for stuff that make it look
really professional. A team is looking at the
marketing side of things too. We are currently
sourcing sponsorship from local businesses and if
interest continues, we may be offering companies
the chance to sponsor a day of the ride. We are
considering a few fundraisers too maybe a
sportsmans night and also a sausage sizzle.
We also have the live recording of the Grupetto
Show.
BARWON HEADS
BOWLING CLUB
Celebrating 43 years
Into November, the Pennant season is

off and running and overall our teams
are doing O.K. Some teams would like
to be doing better, and some maybe
doing better then expected.
Great to see Adam, Darius, Russell, Muriel
and George donning the Barwon Heads
colours for the first time. We wish you well and
hope you enjoy bowling at Barwon Heads.
Talking about Clubs and Club allegiance one of
our very senior and respected bowlers spent her
youth, (some years ago) barracking for and
watching Hawthorn train at Glenferrie oval.
For 40 years they rarely won a game.
For the last 3 years she has worn a permanent
smile as Hawthorn can do no wrong and her
childhood faith has been repaid.
Grupetto Show
The Grupetto Show, hosted by Adam Kelsall (the

know it all), Billy-Jo Shearsby (the has been) and
Phil Anderson (the legend) was filmed at Caf
Maritana on Sunday 25th October and the entry
fees will go to our designated B2B charity of 'Give
Where You Live'. It was a terrific night and thanks
to Greg for putting it all together with some help
from Graeme and Wiggle. Great work on the new
BHCC t-shirts too Greg. Nice design from resting
team member Guyza - thanks mate. For more info,
go to http://www.grupettoshow.com.au
She has also taken many a Tattslotto ticket off

people who should know better than bet against
Hawthorn.
A bowling club has many different people with
many different interests, some stranger than
others. One of my favourites is a lady who loves
to buy and sell cars. The story can wait a while
as it just gets better as time goes by.
Bicycle Network Surveys

On Sunday 8th November, the BHCC
will be collecting cycling data for
Bicycle Network. There will be two
collection points; on the Breamlea
bike path and also on the bike path
between the bridge and The Dunes.
Look out for us and ring your bell as you pass or give us a cheer.
That's it for November. Stay safe and please remember to give us cyclists plenty of room when you
pass.
See you on the road,
Andy McNeilly
Pig! Pig!
The other day on a ride, I was speeding down a

narrow, twisting, mountain road. Then along
comes a man who was driving very slowly uphill
toward me, honking his horn and shouting at me.
"PIG! PIG!!" he yelled. "PIG! PIG!!"
So I flipped him the finger and shouted back
some things I dare not repeat as I buzzed by him.
Still thinking about this awful man and his
shouting, I turned the corner and promptly
collided with a pig.
Back to bowls and with names like Wise, Allen,

Henderson, Bannister performing on
Saturdays and Walter, Green, and Leonard
etc doing their stuff on Tuesdays, things are
looking O.K. and hopefully we can have a
successful and enjoyable season.
Until next time, good bowling.
What do all people who exercise have in common?

A wish.
What is this wish?
To be healthy and in control. Exercise gives us this no matter at what age we take it up.
In fact age does not come into it at all (except for your trainer who has to know your biological age in order to
monitor your heart rate).
Exercise is a great equaliser and does not discriminate on any traditional grounds; ageism, sexism or any other
ism!
During exercise, all our personal and social determinations fall away. We are free, strippethe bare essentials
(sometimes literally), sweating and breathing hard, making a concerted effort of body and mind to meet a
challenge.
This is life at its most basic.
This is how life was from the earliest form of human existence,when prehistoric man and woman had to battle the
elements.
For an hour or so of our lives, we can be our prehistoric ancestors, free from the tyranny of technology and the
pace of modern life.
We can go back to the basics of existence,; our body and our mind running in sync like a well tuned instrument.
In the end, it is about living or Joie de Vivre as the french would say.
So, on the next beautiful day in paradise, lets take up the challenge of enjoying what we are;a mind and a body.
Lets exercise the two together with joy.

The Bellarine Relay for Life

will be held on Saturday Nov
7 and Sunday Nov 8 at
Collendina Recreation
Reserve in Ocean Grove.
Last year we had 751 people participate and
raised an amazing $90,000 for Cancer Council.
This will be the 5th year a Relay has been held on
the Bellarine and we encourage the community
attend.
You can become involved by joining a team, attending

the opening ceremony at midday Saturday, the
Candlelight Ceremony at 8.30pm and the Closing
Ceremony at 11.30am Sunday, coming along to
listening to the entertainment.
We especially invite Survivors and Carers to take part in
the opening lap of the Relay.
JESS ELLWOOD, new member on the

Committee says I got involved in the Relay For Life
this year because I feel as though giving my time to help

this event be as fun and as successful as possible is my
way of honouring friends and family that have battled
cancer. I have been involved in previous Relay For Life
events as a performer, however this is my first time on
the committee. My role as entertainment coordinator
sees that I organise entertainment for the event which
can include music, magic and any other sort of fun.
Some of this years bands have previously played at
relay for life and they include Andrea Robertson, Don
Fisher, Jamie Pye and Ska Bang. Some new local talent
gracing the stages are- Matilda Hassall and The Hustle.
Dazzling Dan The Magic Man will also be on the stage
on Saturday night so we have fun for the whole family!
Artist below isJAMIE PYE

Have you been involved in other Relay for Life events?
I've had the pleasure of performing at Relay for Life a
few times, as well as attending too! Every year it seems
to have the same great vibes as the year before (if not
better!) and is always a very enjoyable time. The sound
on stage is fantastic and I love how it can travel right
around the field, being heard by just about everyone! I try
my best to be a part of the event every year as there's
always good people, a great atmosphere and of course
it's all for a fantastic cause.
Jamie is a 19-year-old guitarist from the Bellarine. His
style is acoustic/instrumental/finger-style, presenting
techniques such as percussive beats and fingerboard
tapping alongside various different tunings on the guitar.
He draws from many influences such as Kim Churchill,
Daniel Champagne, John Butler, Ziggy Alberts,
Woodlock and many more inspiring musicians. Since
finishing his last year of secondary school, Jamie is
learning, practicing and surrounding himself with jazz
music, hoping to study music further, acquiring a more
well-rounded and knowledgeable set of skills that can
influence his own playing.

Barwon Heads Cricket Club

Welcome aboard BHCC
flight 1516. We'll not be cruising
at all this flight. It's all hard work
for the entire trip and no
passengers.
We have a long trip ahead
of us and your crew will be
busting the chops to make it a
success so enjoy the ride.
The season began with a pretty mixed
weekend when A grade, C grade and one of the
Under 13 teams all lost and the club was led by a
fighting win to B Grade when they defended a low
total, the under 17s and under 15 and Under 13
Goddard also had wins. The juniors are in grading
games so their first few are all one day fixtures and
they will soon start the two day matches where the
competitive nature of the game is more testing.
The second round saw a home game for
the A Grade where we had three of last years under
17s feature prominently in a good win. Darcy Hewitt
scored a fine 37, James Hodder scoring a nice 32
batting in the tail and Jack Johnstone opening the
bowling with a fine spell. With a number of other
young lads in the first XI it's an exciting time

for the club and a season of solid development of
these young guys will see us have some success. All
three of the boys named above have started well this
season with James Hodder as the new wicket keeper
doing a grand job behind the stumps. In his first 115
overs in A Grade he has not conceded a single bye
and with scores of 24 and 32not out he's averaging 56
with the bat.
On a fashion note, I had a very dear very
major sponsor ask me to mention that he thought a
senior player wasn't suitably attired as he was playing
with his shirt hanging out. He asked me to mention this
and I said I'd try, and now I have. Hands up if this bloke
needs a chill pill?
The annual ladies day was held

on Cox plate day.
The day is held annually and raises money
for cancer research. This year the money was to be
donated to Peter Mac. The day is traditionally a man
free zone with this year's only concession to the men
being made late in the day when they were allowed in
from the cold afternoon to watch the race. At this point
in the day the ladies were either too compassionate or
simply no longer bothered by the presence of the lads
and they let them stay in the rooms. A smashing
evening of great community interaction

then ensued and I'm sure that all who were gathered
had a terrific time. Clarissa Hyland, Sonia Lazzaro
and Peta Walter did a magnificent job of organizing
the day and the club thanks them and congratulates
them for the day. The only real issue was when
Sonia's husband Vin wore a red hat into the rooms
after the game.
Red hats are not classed as suitable attire
unless worn by the gentle folk from the club across
the river. Vin was roundly admonished and
extremely contrite. Thanks to all the ladies who
supported the day and have done so for some years
now. I'll have a final tally for the donation to Peter
Mac in next month's ed.
Two of highlights of the day were the two
ladies who agreed to go halves in an auction item
and then sat on opposite sides of the room bidding
against one another, and the auctioneer asking the
room who thought that the next item for auction was
worth having and then taking bids from every hand
that went up.
With games being played on both ovals
again this season there is a much busier vibe in the
rooms and a few more people around so come on
over. You're more than welcome. See you down
there.

decided to devote her time to family. We
sincerely thank Mel and Sonya Howard for
all they have contributed to the club and

will still maintain involvement with the club and we are
extremely grateful to Sonya for this.
The club is equally excited to announce the

helm.
